Still here and need support

D7 is on the phone away from WAW and crying her poor little heart out. It kills me that she is so much pain. Cruel to say the least. My poor little sweet girl. Its killing me. She asking her why she had to move over and over. She tells her she wants us all together. "why can't you just come home?"
I can only really say that WAW has soulsucked me and now breaking a little girls heart. So selfish, d7doesnot deserve this. This will result in anger.man oh man

P- hang in there. I feel like you are going thru what I am about to in a few weeks and I feel your angst and pain. I have cried alot over the past few months like you are on trips with her when she asks "why aren't we doing things as a family anymore?"....she doesn't know yet.

I know it's not fair and the WAW is probably stone cold in mind, heart and attitude towards the situation where she is #2 and the child is not the priority. I have witnessed it personally and it breaks my heart that selfishness rules.

I have asked my counselor a million times about the impact of divorce on kids and read a million articles. Hearing the word resilient makes me sick as there isn't a healthy way to divorce with kids. What I do know is that if the 2 parents can eventually co parent , love, and cherish the children that they can end up fine. Is it better to be married and raise a child in a happy home? Yes. But unfortunately most of us on the board are not in the happy home anymore so we just have to figure this out and make the best of it.

It's the worst part of the nightmare. But hopefully you can stay strong in front of her (easier said than done my friend..I know!)
